VietNamNet Bridge - To satisfy the towering demand for travel during the Lunar New Year or the Tet Holiday 2015, the low-cost carrier VietJet Air has prepared 360,000 tickets available for purchase. The airline will soon have three more Airbus A320 to facilitate an increase in flight frequency for this long holiday.

There is always a huge surge in demand for air travel before and after Tet in Vietnam as Vietnamese living abroad or elsewhere in Vietnam head home to celebrate the long holiday with their families. In recent years, there has also been a spike in the number of Vietnamese taking holidays during Tet. VietJet, therefore, plans to increase its flight frequency so that everyone can “Enjoy Flying” at this busy time of the year.

“There is always a concern in the build up to Tet that there will be a ticket shortage or that tickets for flights on all routes will cost more than usual. That’s why we have opened up our first round of tickets for the upcoming Tet period now so customers can book well in advance and avail of our high quality flights at the best possible price. The more people save on travel expenses, the more they can enjoy the holiday with family and friends,” says Mr. Desmond Lin – VietJet’s Business Development Director.

“By booking early, our customers can relax and look forward to enjoying their family reunion. We look forward to helping our passengers from Vietnam and overseas ‘Enjoy Flying’ during the most meaningful holiday of the year,” adds Mr. Lin.

To avail of the best possible fares, customers should book their ticket right now by going to www.vietjetair.com or www.facebook.com/vietjetairvietnam and click on the tab “Đặt vé”.

Customers can also call the VietJet hotline (19001886) or visit the nearest ticket outlet. Payment can be easily made with major credit cards like Visa Card, Master Card, JCB, American Express or ATM cards registered for internet banking.

VietJet offers fast, convenient check-in procedures and priority boarding for elderly or disabled passengers and parents traveling with children under the age of two. Once on board, passengers can sit back and relax in a comfy leather seat and order from a menu featuring nine delicious, hot meals. Drinks and snacks are also available on the flight plus an array of amazing gifts and souvenirs.

VietJet currently operates 21 local and international routes, with more than 770 flights per week and has plans in the pipeline to expand its routes in Asia Pacific as well as engage in joint ventures with other regional airline partners.
